| Indigenous Rights
The article highlights the devastating impact of oil exploitation by Texaco (now Chevron) on the indigenous communities in the Ecuadorian Amazon. It details the environmental degradation, health crises, and cultural losses suffered by the A'i Kofán people and other affected groups. Despite legal battles and international arbitration, justice remains elusive, with Chevron denying responsibility and shifting blame to Petroecuador. The narrative underscores the ongoing struggle for environmental justice, the politicization of the issue, and the resilience of the affected communities in seeking reparations and support through solidarity and grassroots efforts.

Ecuador’s Tense Peace Won’t Last

English
| Drug Trafficking
Ecuador is grappling with a surge in violence and crime, prompting President Daniel Noboa to declare a state of 'internal conflict' and militarize policing efforts. The rise in violence is linked to increased global cocaine production and the involvement of international criminal organizations. Despite widespread support for militarization, experts and human rights groups express concerns about potential abuses and the long-term effectiveness of such measures. The government is also seeking to implement security reforms through a popular referendum, though some proposals have been blocked by the Constitutional Court. The situation remains tense, with calls for a more comprehensive approach to address underlying issues such as corruption, money laundering, and social inequality.

Rebels kidnap couple on Ecuador and Colombia border

| Rebel Activities
Ecuador's government has received a video showing a couple, Oscar Efren Villacis and Katty Vanesa Valesco, kidnapped by a dissident rebel group led by ex-FARC member Guacho, operating on the border with Colombia. The couple was taken hostage following the killing of two journalists and their driver by the same group. The rebels, known as Oliver Sinisterra Front, have demanded the release of detained fighters in exchange for the couple. Increased military presence by Colombia and Ecuador has led to arrests of group members. Academic Pete Watson highlighted the government's failure to establish control in areas previously occupied by FARC as a contributing factor to the kidnappings and noted the criminal nature of new splinter groups. Ecuadorian authorities are offering a reward for information on Guacho, while peace efforts continue with other groups like the ELN, despite their disruptive actions.

| Human Rights Violations
Julian Assange, an Australian programmer and journalist, founded WikiLeaks to expose government corruption, human rights violations, and state secrets. After five years in UK prison awaiting extradition to the US for espionage charges, he was released as part of a plea deal. Assange's work with WikiLeaks has sparked debates on press freedom, privacy rights, and the ethics of information leaks. His legal troubles include hacking charges in the 1990s and sexual assault allegations in Sweden, leading him to seek asylum in the Ecuadorian Embassy in London. The US charges against him involve collaboration with Chelsea Manning to access classified information.

Ecuador weighs two very different economic visions in election

English
| COVID-19 Pandemic
Ecuador is preparing for a presidential run-off election between left-wing economist Andres Arauz and right-wing banker Guillermo Lasso, amid economic challenges and the COVID-19 pandemic. The election is marked by rising tensions, partisanship, and the influence of former president Rafael Correa. The country faces significant economic downturns due to declining oil prices and the pandemic, with a slow vaccine rollout and increasing hospitalizations. The Indigenous movement, whose candidate narrowly missed the run-off, is divided, with some calling for a boycott. The new president will need to address economic recovery and national unity.
